"Los ofrecerás delante del Señor , y los sacerdotes echarán sal sobre ellos y los ofrecerán en holocausto al Señor .
Y los ofrecer�s delante de Jehov�, y los sacerdotes echar�n sal sobre ellos y los ofrecer�n en holocausto a Jehov�.
y los ofrecer�s delante del SE�OR, y los sacerdotes echar�n sal sobre ellos, y los ofrecer�n en holocausto al SE�OR.

cast salt: Leviticus 2:13, Numbers 18:19, 2 Chronicles 13:5, Matthew 5:13, Mark 9:49, Mark 9:50, Colossians 4:6
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And thou shalt offer them before the Lord,.... Upon the altar of burnt offering, which stood before the house or temple where Jehovah dwelt, Ezekiel 40:47:
and the priests shall cast salt upon them; which was to be used in all sacrifices under the law, Leviticus 2:13, this may denote the savoury doctrines and lives of the ministers of the Gospel, who thereby recommend the truths they deliver, concerning a crucified Christ, his blood, righteousness, and sacrifice, to others; see Matthew 5:13:
and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering unto the Lord; throughout the whole seven days of the consecration and cleansing of the altar, as follows:
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
There was, on each of the seven days, a burnt-offering of a bullock and a ram, preceded by a “sin-offereng of a bullock” on the first day, and of a “kid of the goats” on the other days.
Ezekiel 43:24
Salt is here added to the “burnt-offering” to express still more the idea of purification. In the second temple no sacrifice was complete without the use of salt, and the rabbis assert that there was a great heap of salt close to the altar, always ready for use, and that the inclined plane to the altar was kept covered with salt. Compare Mark 9:49.
Ezekiel 43:26
Consecrate themselves - literally, as in the margin. Leviticus 8:27. The priests are already consecrated, but the memory of their consecration was thus kept up at the dedication of the altar.
